There are 4 moles of spectator ions that remain in solution.
The equation of the reaction is;
Na2CO3(aq) + Pb(NO3)2(aq) -------> PbCO3(s) + 2NaNO3(aq)
We have to determine the limiting reactant. This is the reactant that yields the least amount of product. Note that the spectator ions are Na^+ and NO3^- that form NaNO3.
For Na2CO3
1 mole of Na2CO3 yields 2 moles of NaNO3
3 moles of Na2CO3 yields 3 × 2/1 = 6 moles of NaNO3
For Pb(NO3)2
1 mole of Pb(NO3)2 yields 2 moles of NaNO3
2 moles of Pb(NO3)2 yields 2 × 2/1 = 4 moles of NaNO3
We can see that Pb(NO3)2 is the limiting reactant.
Since [NaNO3] = [Na^+] = [NO3^-], it follows that there are 4 moles of spectator ions that remain in solution.
